Oster 4128 Osterizer Contemporary Classic Beehive Blender

Comment: This is one of the simplest and best blenders i have ever had. Its a powerful blender, easy to use because theres only two settings, its durable, and it comes apart so its easy to clean. The blades are very sharp so itll blend anything real easily. The only downside is the blades are very sharp so be careful cleaning if your not going to take apart.

Comment: I have a vast collection of copper kitchen utensils and appliances including my favorite the awe-inspiring, guest amazing, Kitchen Aid mixer. Although I already have a black Oster with both the glass and metal tops, I really wanted the copper one but not at full retail.

When a barely used one came up for sale, I immediately bought it. It looks great next to the mixer and will share the Oster durability with the other one. I can use the metal top for smoothies and other drinks. It is really beautiful and parts are readily available forever. The metal construction is much more durable and easier to clean than plastic found in other blenders.Oster 4128 Contemporary Classic Beehive Blender, Polished Copper

Comment: I had some bad memories of some poor engines on previous Oster blenders but this one really rocks (it could probably crush them too). Just make sure you have it turned off before plugging it in. I didn't think I would like the on/off option instead of the supposed variable speeds of other blenders but I really love this blender. It is easy to pulse when you want to slow down the blending.

Comment: I bought this blender because of the copper. My kitchen is done with copper faucets, etc and it seems these days that everyone has a stainless steel obsession so it's so hard to find stuff that matches my kitchen. This looks so nice I keep it out on the counter rather than in the appliance cubby. It's no louder than my 13yr old Cuisanart was, and it works a LOT better. It chops up anything I throw in it incredibly quickly. This was worth every penny.

Comment: I read previous reviews on this item about how LOUD it is. And I thought, well, all blenders are annoyingly loud. Yes, it is loud, but man does it do the job. Two settings; GO ALL THE WAY and PULSE. That's all you need. None of this liquify, blend, whip, puree, blah blah blah. I never did see a difference in anything I whipped versus pureed! Thought I was doing something wrong, now I know it's just a bunch of bologne! The copper looks great on my counter too, with my other copper accents in the kitchen!
